Rice Krispies with a gooey layer of caramel sauce, chocolate and pecans. These Turtle Rice Krispie Treats are the desserts your Christmas needs! Take your classic rice krispie treats to the next level!
Chocolate Caramel Rice Krispies Treats for Christmas
Caramel, chocolate and pecans make a classic treat even better! Turtle Rice Krispie Treats will be your new family favorite! I brought these to a party and when I turned back around they were gone! The caramel layer is the most divine thing you will taste and your friends will love you even more if you make these for them! They’re pretty rich, so you can cut them into small squares to feed a whole crowd.
Rice Krispie Treats are my go-to late night treat. They’re quick to make, I can make a really tiny batch and if I don’t add any butter I consider it to be low fat and not a dessert at all because then it’s just cereal right? 🙂
Easy Turtle Rice Krispie Treats
Make a standard rice krispies mixture. Pat down the cereal mixture with a spatula and then pour caramel. Drizzle melted chocolate and top with crunchy pecans. I would recommend toasting your pecans first to really bring out their flavor. You could even mix them into the chocolate if you wanted to! Tip: I always like to line my pans with parchment or foil so that when the treats are set, I can just lift up on the parchment and pull the whole dessert out. It makes it really easy to cut them into pretty pieces after. If you use cooking spray or rub about a tbsp butter on the parchment before, it makes it even easier! It will just peel away from the krispies with no problem. The caramel layer can tend to stick a bit so make sure to grease far enough up the sides of your parchment!
Turtle Christmas Dessert
I made these with my mother in mind. She is a loves anything “turtle!” When we go to small towns and find cute bakeries we always look for turtles for her to eat! (I hope you know I’m talking about candy turtles and not real turtles! We love real turtles too but not for eating!) I know my mother will be wanting me to make these when I see her at Christmas…
Krispie treats or Crispy treats? Or Krispies Treats? For some reason when I go to type up these cereal recipes I never quite know what people prefer! Oh the food blogger struggles… Any way you spell or say it, this is a delicious dessert! Even your kids will love helping you make and eat it this Christmas season!

Your recipe doesn’t specify which type of choc. Chips!!! Semi-sweet chips or reg. Sweet choc. Chips? I find this in quite a few recipes & frankly find it irritating?
Wow! What an entitled comment dissing this blogger over chocolate chips; none the less. This lovely woman shares her hard work and talents with YOU and that’s how you reciprocate?
The real answer is… whatever kind of chocolate chips fit YOUR fancy because it doesn’t matter… they’re all good!
It really doesn’t matter in most recipes what chips you use. You could use dark chocolate if you really wanted. Instead of dissing the blogger you should use common sense. Or maybe just asking politely.
This recipe turned out amazing. Very easy and delicious. Thank you, Tina
Very informative
Why does this recipe call for butter in step #2 and step #4, which is it. The ingredients list doesn’t say to divide it. This is very misleading an hard to figure out!!!
Really?? Maybe you should trying reading more carefully. It’s listed on the ingredients list twice, once towards the top for step 2 and once towards the bottom for step 4. So calm down with your “misleading” comment, it’s not that hard.
Unwrapped caramels??
No, eat the wrapping. Sorry for the comment but really????
Actually the wrappers taken off of the carmels firs before using them
I totally agree. Please ask kindly. There are far too many things that justifiably need to be complained about. Seriously? Choc chips? Be thankful for a great recipe that was shared!
Sincerely,
The Kind one.
